Network Time Protocol Project

The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is designed to synchronize the clocks of computers over a network. NTF’s NTP Project maintains and improves the software and specification for the first clock service on the Internet. The NTP Project continues to work on both the development of the protocol standard that is used to communicate time between systems and the reference software implementation of that standard. The software and protocol specifications produced by NTF’s NTP Project keep the clocks right on tens of millions of computers around the world.
